TESTIMONIAL

We engaged Blue Summitt to set up our company’s IT infrastructure when we were in the process of embarking on a large clinical trial. A number of years later, Blue Summitt remains our vendor of choice for our IT needs. It is a testament to the quality of their work that we rarely need to call them to address ongoing issues, though when we do the response is always timely and we are always able to rely on their advice.
